Here is a few things that will help you:

1: within your profile you will see something called preferences, Click on that and look at the options. You will see a spot that has something called " Notify Me Of Replies" Click that to Yes and remember to save it. This way if someone replies to you add you will know by the email sent to you.

Also adding a phone number is sometimes bad because of bone heads calling you just to give you grief. If you can put up with a little of that witch it does not happen to much you might be better off. Just take a look at the your options within your preferences to add odds to your sale or buy.

Good luck everyone!

Hey, J (It's Labrapaws from DDW) I just wanted to add a few things... One thing that people do not like, is ALL CAPS. Ads like this are usually by-passed because it's extremely hard to read and follow. Another thing, is placing your e-mail (better then phone #) so people who are not actually computer savvy, can contact you easily ! I know a few people online who cannot figure out the PM system !

Ads - Put as much Information as possible in your ad ! Give out as much info about the animal (Cat, Dog, Puppies, kittens, etc) as you can. If puppies, include information about the parents, what you have available (colors/genders), price and post PICTURES !! It's proven that ads with pictures get more hits and more attention (thus MORE replies !) Add'l information would include, Registration (AKC, Can.KC, etc) ; Health Clearances the parents had ; Health Guarantees ; Pedigree Info ; What comes with each puppy (Vaccinations, Wormer, etc).....

Pictures- Ideally, you'd post pictures of each parent and each pup you have available. If not, 1 of each parent, and a litter picture usually does the job well !
It's advised to copyright pictures with a water mark OR place a copyright notice under each picture, to prevent theft. You can do this by holding down Alt and push these numbers, in this order, 0+1+6+9. That will give you the © icon.
